I was the consignor, glad they went to a board member. They went for a bit less than I expected, but other stuff more than made up for it.

:applause: congrats, I almost bid on one of those myself just so I could have one in my collection

Hate this is trimmed, ----script looks off as well, not saying it is not legit but certainly drawbacks.

The only thing that bothers me is the way the “O” is written in Okajima. But, signatures are never the same. 

When I compared the characteristics of the way the 5s, 4s, and 3s were written in the -script, it matches the same characteristics on my books. 

Hopefully some other people weigh in their thoughts. Definitely a bummer that it’s trimmed.

Sorry I did not mean that it was not legit it just looked so bright and dark it threw me.

if the seller's description of the page quality is accurate (pure white) then this may have been one of the luckier early books in the stacks that was protected and held its color and white pages

early 2 series with no date that I can see.... and war cover subject matter...

It looks like the date is written under the issue number, but it’s hard to say from the scan.
